| - | ===== Homework Policies ===== | + | ===== Problem Sets ===== |
| - | Weekly problem sets. I fully grade two or three problems (announced after submission); the others count for completion. Solutions must be concise (≤1 page per problem) and list the named results used (e.g., "DCT + UI"). | + | **HW 1–3** were graded and count toward the final grade at a reduced weight (see Grading below). |
| - | **Format:** Starting HW 3, solutions must be typeset in LaTeX and submitted as PDF. Non-LaTeX submissions will be returned without grading. | + | **HW 4 onward** are ungraded practice problems. Weekly problem sets will continue to be assigned, and detailed solutions will be posted after each set. The problems are not collected or graded, but the material is essential preparation for the midterm, final, and presentations. If you have questions about the problems or want feedback on your proofs, I am happy to discuss them in office hours. |

| - | **LaTeX resources:** Homework templates will be posted on Overleaf. Students should create a free account at [[https://www.overleaf.com/|Overleaf]]. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | **Submission:** Submit via Gradescope as PDF by the due date. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | **Late policy:** 3 late-day tokens total for the term; beyond that, late work is not accepted. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | **Rubric:** | + | |
| - | * 4 = correct & clear | + | |
| - | * 3 = essentially correct (minor gap) | + | |
| - | * 2 = right idea with major gap | + | |
| - | * 1 = meaningful progress | + | |
| - | * 0 = off-track | + | |
| - | * +0.5 exposition bonus possible (capped at 4) | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | I may invite you to brief board checks on your own solutions; these verify understanding and may adjust the HW score slightly. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | You may discuss ideas, but write your own solutions. | + | |
